Funny enough, I have moved this patch between the two so many times
before submitting this. I tend to agree that I don't think it makes a
difference in which series this patch goes, so I'm just as happy to
leave it where it is and stop thinking about it ;-).
If others have strong feelings, this can be dropped when queuing and
I'll send it along as the first commit in the second series (which will
have to be updated along with this one).
